Although advances in medical science continue to extend life expectancy, minor aches and pains in later years often make it difficult to get up from a chair. Thanks to the creative thinking of an inventor from Temple Hills, Md., however, that is no longer a challenge.

He developed a prototype for EASY UP PLATFORM specifically to help users get up easily from a chair. As such, it enhances comfort while watching TV, reading or relaxing in a chair. Thus it keeps the user relaxed for longer periods of time. At the same time, it reduces physical strain. Therefore, it is especially helpful for individuals with knee and back pain. It also provides mobility and independence for the elderly and individuals with physical disabilities. In addition, it is convenient, durable and affordably priced.

The inventor’s personal experience inspired the idea. “After driving a bus for 30 years, I experienced considerable pain in my knees and back as I got older. This made it difficult to stand up from a sitting position,” he said. “I wanted to make it easier for anyone who normally struggles to get up from a recliner.”

The original design was submitted to the Washington, D.C., office of InventHelp. It is currently available for licensing or sale to manufacturers or marketers.
